So,
I have had these new MB1020 irons for a few weeks now and have been hitting them at the range, at the dome, and oh yeah, a few rounds on the course. Have to say, big fan thus far.
Played Hawk Ridge this past weekend, and one correction before I go on, the course was the longer of the two, and from where we played it from was around 68-7,000 yards. Very nice, and very challenging. More on the course later as I digress from the topic of this post.
As I have stated earlier, these irons are blades with little or no offset. They aren’t forged but cast, yet, they play like a set of forged tour blades. They are so soft, yet they give you incredible grip on the ball. In fact, I went through 4 balls this round because the clubs were actually shredding the outer layer. Amazing!!
I have changed my setup a little bringing my feet a little tighter and my stance a little closer to the ball. This is allowing me to hit these irons like they should be hit. Long, straight and soft. I recall one Par 3, number 17 I think, that was playing 174 slightly downhill, and I hit my 6-iron to about 10 feet on the short side of the pin. My ball wasn’t more than 2 inches away from the divot. What can I tell you? I love these sticks and will recommend them to anyone who wants to elevate their game to the next level.
